Abstract

The present invention relates to a quick fitting and rotational system for assembling articulating parts, namely for warning triangles for motor vehicles which comprise: a component (1) with two male elements consisting of cylindrical pins (3) with an oval head; a component (2) with two female elements consisting of openings (4 and 5) which narrow at one end, one of which leads into a circular area (6) and the other into an arched slot (7); a brake consisting of a flap (8) mounted in the aforementioned circular area (6). The fitting and rotation of the component (2) with female elements on top of the component (1) with male elements cause the cylindrical pins (3) to slide, one along the narrowing opening (4), coming to rest in the circular area (6), and the other along the other narrowing opening (5), entering the slot (7) and continuing until it reaches the far end of the slot (7). Once the cylindrical pin (3) has been fitted into the circular area (6), the brake flap (8) prevents it from being released without the safety flap (8) being activated. <IMAGE>

Description

Rotating and quick assembly system for parts articulated

The present invention relates to a system Rotary and quick assembly for the assembly of parts articulated, in particular for signaling triangles of emergency for motor vehicles.

Background of the invention

Various assembly systems are known for articulated components, particularly those used for emergency signaling triangle assembly for motor vehicles In known systems, the system of assembly is still slow and rather complex and requires a large volume. In the document US-A-3,934,541 discloses a quick assembly rotary system according to the preamble of the claim 1.

Obviously, the characteristics of this type of system, when applied to signaling triangles of emergency for motor vehicles, it must ensure a quick assembly and at the same time allow the volume to be minimal in order to that does not take up too much space inside the vehicle. Other important feature is the need to reduce the costs of production. All these characteristics depend on the type of assembly and assembly system used.

Summary of the invention

The main objective of the present system invention is to allow it to be assembled quickly and ease. On the other hand, the elements used are simple and lightweight and can easily be stored in very small spaces when the system is disassembled.

The system is essentially composed of two elements, a male and a female, that can be assembled Quick and easy, as can be seen in this description.

Detailed description of the preferred embodiment

As illustrated in Figures 1 to 6, the system It consists of two components (1) and (2). The component with male elements (1) has two cylindrical pins (3) with a head oval. The component with female elements (2) has two openings (4, 5) that narrow at one end, one of which happens to be a circular surface (6) and the other a curved groove (7). The circular surface (6) also has a brake formed by a fin (8).

The remaining figures illustrate how the system. The assembly and rotation of the component (2) with elements female on the component (1) with male elements forces the cylindrical pins (3) to slide, one along the opening which narrows (4), settling down on the circular surface (6), and the other along the other narrowing opening (5), entering the slot (7) and continuing until it reaches the part outside of the groove (7). Once the cylindrical spike (3) has been housed in the circular surface (6), the brake flap (8) prevents that the pin is released without the safety fin (8) being activated The groove (7), which allows a component to rotate on the other, also limits the breadth of its route, and stabilizes your movement

Obviously, this mounting system can easily adapt to an emergency signaling triangle for motor vehicles, as on the other hand can be seen in the drawings mentioned above. In fact, the components (1) and (2) are two of the components of said triangle. The component (1) it has male elements at one end, and female elements at the other extreme. The other component (2) has female elements in a end (which is connected to the end of the component (1) that is provided with male elements), while a third component (9) it has male elements at one end (which is connected to the end of the component (1) which is provided with female elements). In the ends of the components (2) and (9), opposite the ends in those that are located the female and male elements, a coupling system to hold said two components when The triangle is in the assembly position. This game of Three components is mounted on a stand. The game of components indicated above have a rectilinear arrangement  when the respective components are not properly mounted and It is triangular in shape when the components are mounted adequately.

Although the description of this mounting system is based on a specific embodiment, that is, a emergency signaling triangle for motor vehicles, I don't know provides that this invention is limited at all to this type of application. Therefore, this quick assembly system can be used for any other application.

The invention will only be limited by the field of application of the following claims.

Claims (4)
